Crawler's game plan:

Bitch about the Astros. Done!

Lets put some distance between us and the other WC contenders

Well the Rangers have corrected a couple of head scratcher moves from earlier this week by DFAing Rearick as well as sending Nick Martinez back down. Glad to see Faulkner get a chance. He was really on fire coming out of the pen so hopefully he can do some good up here as well. I think as well as he and Jackson have done since being converted to relievers that they have a real good shot at being in the pen all of next year.

Hope that pen is so crowded with great relief arms next season, that we don't know what to do with them all.

This story isn't about the Rangers, but it is a great baseball story. This young man may never get to the big leagues, but he has had quite a journey.

Sure wish Odor was good to go.

A couple of things from the Jamey Newberg report this morning.

Since the AS break Prince has slugged at a .360 clip while Elvis has slugged at a .421 clip.

He also reminded us that last year at this time we had guys like Mike Carp, JP Arrencibia, Jim Adduci. and Adam Rosales in the lineup.

Good point and how quickly we forget

It's a shame we can't manage to get Nap more ab's. What a waste wearing out pine

He's here to hit LHP. He's not worth much otherwise.

Love that Hamel's warm up music is Tool.

 

[DT LUNA]

Great start Cole

 

[romeo212000]

That's a damn fine start, Mr. Hamels.

But we haven't always done that.

My point is, I don't see much reason to gripe about him not being in the lineup tonight. Also, Nap needs to start every game against the Angels.
